Compared with the global model already on sale, the U.S.-market Colorado appears to have a bolder grille that ties it aesthetically to the full-size Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and HD models. The 2015 Colorado prototype’s headlights feature round projectors, while the shape of the headlight housing is still disguised. Even so, we can tell the headlights aren’t the split full-height style as those on the full-size pickups.

From the side, the 2015 Colorado has a similar cab and bed shape as the earlier model. Around back camouflage falling off the rear exposes more of the tailgate showing a small lip at the top.

While global Chevrolet Colorado trucks are powered exclusively by diesel engines, the U.S.-market vehicle may get four- and six-cylinder gas engines. Possible four-cylinder candidates include the Malibu‘s 2.5-liter or the Cadillac CTS‘ turbo 2.0-liter, while the naturally aspirated V-6 option is most likely GM’s 3.6-liter engine. A turbodiesel four-cylinder is also a possibility.
